Lecturer in Sport and Exercise Science

Job description

Permanent, part-time, 0.5 FTE

We are seeking to appoint a proactive and highly skilled individual to work in the School of Human and Health Sciences to support all aspects of academic work for our programmes in sport and exercise science, and physical education and coaching. This will include teaching undergraduate students and contributing to research activities. A specific interest and expertise in biomechanics and/or strength and conditioning is central to this role.

The Department of Allied Health Professions, Sport and Exercise has an excellent portfolio of education and research and we want to appoint individuals to help us achieve our ambitious plans.

A Master’s degree in Sport and Exercise Science or a closely related discipline is essential. Experience of applied work (e.g., coaching, instructing, sport science support) in addition to relevant teaching experience in Higher Education are also necessary. You will be highly motivated and be able to undertake student-centred teaching, learning, and assessment to ensure a positive student experience.

We are seeking a highly talented individual who will not only make the most of opportunities provided by our School but also help to develop new opportunities in research and teaching.

This post is subject to an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check. Regular status checks may also be required, depending on your role.

The University is deeply committed to equality and diversity for all its students and staff. We seek to be diverse and inclusive, supporting individuals and groups to fulfil their potential and nurture a sense of belonging. We strive to be an accessible, inclusive employer, removing barriers for all. Find out more about our approach to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion, including our commitments and accreditations as a Disability Confident Leader, Stonewall Top 100 Employer, Athena Swan Silver Award holder and Race Equality Charter Bronze Award holder.

Informal enquiries are welcome and should be made Dr Matthew Haines by email at [email protected]

If you are a current student at the University, you are welcome to apply for part-time roles of 16 hours or less per week, unless you are a part-time postgraduate student, in which case you can also apply for full time roles, subject to any visa requirements.
